Pregnancy is counted from the first day of her last period. Most women find out they’re pregnant at 5-6 weeks. This is essentially a total ban on abortion.
And many don’t find out until later. 5-6 weeks is just the earliest that one is likely to find out. So many women have irregular cycles that it’s completely possible to go 8 weeks or even more without having any idea that you’re pregnant.
